Description:Vinyes de Barcelona is the only wine produced in the city of Barcelona. It is created at the Can Calopa de Dalt estate on the northern side of the Collserola mountain range. That is where we grow the grapes and make the wine in a small, refurbished winery, a project started by the Barcelona City Council in 2001 and managed by L’Olivera since 2010 with a commitment to social farming that combines quality produce with social inclusion and respect for the environment.
Varieties: Grenache (53%), Syrah (27%) and Carignan (20%)
Tasting notes: Intense ruby red colour with violet hues. Nose noticeable for aromatic intensity, with ripe cherry notes on a balsamic, spicy background. On the palate it is well-structured, silky and with fine, marked tannin. Sweet and balanced entry. There is a balance between the fruit, the freshness of the terroir and notes of evolution over time. Ideal for pairing with all types of meat and cheese. The speciality: roast lamb with vegetables and potato parmentier.
